Lodi

                                  Just about a year ago 

I set out on the road 

Seekin' my fame and fortune 

Lookin' for a pot of gold 

Thing got bad and things got worse 

I guess you know the tune 

Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again 



Rode in on the Greyhound 

I'll be walkin' out if I go 

I was just passin' through 

Must be seven months or more 

Ran out of time and money 

Looks like they took my friends 

Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again 



A man from the magazine 

Said I was on my way 

Somewhere I lost connections 

Ran out of songs to play 

I came into town, a one night stand 

Looks like my plans fell through 

Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again 



If I only had a dollar 

For every song I've sung 

Every time I had to play 

While people sat there drunk 

You know, I'd catch the next train 

Back to where I live 

Oh Lord, stuck in a Lodi again 

Oh Lord, I'm stuck in a Lodi again
